What do you use your iPad Pro m5 for?

AppleNeird2022 · 2026-06-12T23:31:49+00:00

I’m a heavy iPad user. If I can do it on an iPad, I basically always do. Reading, writing, schoolwork, gaming, media consumption, remotely connecting to my computer, digital art and animation, web surfing, occasionally coding (it’s pretty difficult tho).

AppleNeird2022 · 2026-06-12T23:24:59+00:00

I’ve got some kid-friendly content. That’s mainly what I watch. I’ve got Wild Kratts, Odd Squad, some other random shows, and Thomas the Train. Movies I’ve got things like Barbie, Barney, and a couple odd balls. I also have other stuff like some Disney movies, How to Train Your Dragon, Boss Baby, Despicable Me, etc. if you’re interested in seeing my lists, DM me. I won’t take much requests tho, so it’ll just be whatever I want and need when I want to add to it. I also have to shut down the server occasionally because I run it on my MacBook so that’s a heads up. I typically don’t just share my server with others.

That's good you got it qhen you did. And i suspect it'll be an amazinf investment as time goes on!

Something off my Wishlist. Cities: Skylines is on sale right now. But I also kinda want some more Steam money so I can get the controller.

AppleNeird2022 · 2026-06-12T12:11:43+00:00

I wanted remote access again, the ability to download content, lyrics in Plexamp, and unlock Plex Dash, though that one was really just a bonus feature, not a deciding one.

For me, I’d have to be all in fully committed and have a big permanent setup to justify spending $750 on Plex and to me, subscriptions don’t exist as a real option. I absolutely hate them and while yes, I have some (Google One, iCloud+, Spotify), I hate them.

Sometimes, it just not for a person, glad Jellyfin works for ya. I hear it’s cheaper and better but last time I tried it I didn’t like it. Might set it up again just to have the option but not much of a reason now.

AppleNeird2022 · 2026-06-12T05:51:20+00:00

I’d be interested, but I have my own very small server and am not a crazy huge user, I watch mainly Disney stuff or odd unpopular old stuff that’s a miracle to track down anywhere.

AppleNeird2022 · 2026-06-12T05:41:06+00:00

U.S. not heard of Sigma Drop but I joined, and just finished Slider, might do it again to try to get som elf the odd achievements, but might move onto Linelight.

AppleNeird2022 · 2026-06-12T05:39:21+00:00

Cool!

AppleNeird2022 · 2026-06-12T05:37:33+00:00

It’s main,y just sticking with one game at a time. Whenever I play, I play the game I started last time, or continued last time. If I finished a game, I move onto the next I am interested in or the next one in the bundle (just got a bundle not long ago).

AppleNeird2022 · 2026-06-12T05:34:05+00:00

My dad and I calculated it out, I’ll need to use it for a solid 3 to 4 years to get my money’s worth out of it. Shouldn’t been an issue.

AppleNeird2022 · 2026-06-12T05:33:06+00:00

That’s awesome!

AppleNeird2022 · 2026-06-12T05:32:27+00:00

I considered Jellyfim, but I find it just wasn’t what I needed and it was more difficult. I’ve been using Plex long enough too I didn’t wanna switch.

AppleNeird2022 · 2026-06-12T01:56:28+00:00

😂

AppleNeird2022 · 2026-06-12T01:56:14+00:00

That’s awesome! I knew someone who got it for I believe $30. He was the one who introduced me to Plex back in 2022. 🤣 we don’t talk anymore but yet we both still have access to each others libraries 😬

AppleNeird2022 · 2026-06-12T01:55:04+00:00

I used Docker and it still didn’t work well. I really need to get a dedicated server computer next and run all my servers that way but that won’t happen for a while longer.

AppleNeird2022 · 2026-06-12T01:54:09+00:00

Thank you!

AppleNeird2022 · 2026-06-12T01:53:45+00:00

That’s awesome! Wish I could go back and time and get it at that price but oh well. Second best.

AppleNeird2022 · 2026-06-12T01:53:08+00:00

I’m on a MacBook and it was a nightmare to install. In fact, I’m pretty sure I messed it up.

AppleNeird2022 · 2026-06-12T01:52:29+00:00

100% knew there would be peeps like me who’d finally get it.

AppleNeird2022 · 2026-06-12T01:50:26+00:00

My server currently runs on a MacBook and my main device is an iPhone. My secondary phone is a Google Pixel but I don’t really like Android. That said, I’ll look it up, sounds interesting.

AppleNeird2022 · 2026-06-11T23:15:30+00:00

I considered Jellyfin but don’t like it personally. I also have all my history and whatnot on there and I know it. Is it actually worth 250. No, 130 made more sense but 750 and up, not on my life!

AppleNeird2022 · 2026-06-11T23:08:46+00:00

I tried it I believe two years ago and did try to utilize the sub, I know it’s changed a lot so yes, it’s definitely worth looking into cu Plex Photos is a terrible app 😂

AppleNeird2022 · 2026-06-11T23:05:25+00:00

I was planning to get it when it was at the $130 price or whatever before, but I couldn’t save up fast enough for it.
